Has there been any lately? I just got done watching Dave Chappelle's Block Party and it's got me in the mood for some good hip hop. Suggest some to me, preferably new, but just list some good stuff maybe I missed some older stuff.

Heres some that I listen to:
Little Brother, Black Star, A Tribe Called Quest, People Under the Stairs, Jurassic 5, Mos Def, Masta Ace, GangStarr, Foreign Exchange, Dilated Peoples, Common

I don't know if this fits your taste, but Lupe Fiasco is pretty good... Some of his beats remind me of older hip hop

I've got De La Soul's Stakes is High, I'll give it another shot. What I've heard from Dead Prez sounds really good but a lot of it has been about killin whitey, and I was like do they talk about other stuff? I forgot about Pharoahe Monch, and I'll give some of the others a listen.

7/13/2008 11:24:19 PM

you need to listen to all the roots' albums

7/13/2008 11:34:03 PM

It's really deep stuff.
